What with it being almost Christmas, and all, work-ish activities are winding down and I’m spending more time on pet projects and planning 2026. It'll be good to spend more time on creative writing and music.
Had a great meeting with a potential client. Looking to have a second meeting before Christmas.
Attended an online AI for Operations workshop that was really good. A good portion of it mirrored what I already do, but I learned some new stuff and got some great insight. More of this anon, I think.
I wrote one poem, and drafted and edited the 24 advent calendar posts for The Ode Map.
Started drafting a personal reflection on Christmas.
I thought about magnetic poetry kits. And Miley Cyrus. (But not at the same time.)
I did a 'big shop'. It wasn't as chaotic and frantic as I had been imagining.
This week I watched:
- 'Star Trek Strange New Worlds' S1E2
- Got up-to-date on ‘Down Cemetery Road’, ‘Pluribus’, ‘Loot’
- The first two episodes of ‘The War Between the Land and the Sea’. (Interesting, holding judgement for now.)
- ‘Talamasca’ S1S1-2. Nope. Not for me.
And I listened to:
- Klaendestine - “We Shall Share” EP
- Attrition - “Keepsakes and Reflections” Album
- Cosey Fanni Tutti - “2t2”
- SHEL - “Just Crazy Enough” Album
- Ely Eira - “Legend of Ely” Album
- M.I.A. - “Kala” Album
Finally, November’s listening figures are in. I tried to listen to new stuff and not repeat listening to the same thing too much. Let’s say that I succeeded, in part.
